Orthogonal drawing lock tool


TArchit

Recommended Posts

I actually like using Shift to constrain to Vertical & never used the constrained mode of the Line tool.

I often/usually used constrained dimensions however.

The wall tool can be used in rectangle mode, automatically generating orthogonal walls.

^ bcd,

where is that, I need that, immediately !

:)

 

I want to never ever draw any rounded or non-90° Walls in my life.

At least not by my will.

 

 

A found it, the "Rectangle Drawing Mode"

 

But I would like to draw 100% straight in "Single Line" or "Polygon Mode" also.

I use it the same way,

just deactivated,

to not loose the angle settings already set, in case I need them at one time later in my life.

 

 

Well, Walls always worked quite Well with the SHIFT "lock".

And in VW 2017 it also works mostly for other object's creation too.

 

Just that when you SHIFT lock to "X" but have to move more in "Y" direction,

that it jumps over in a "Y" "lock" is still annoying.

Otherwise it would be great.

I don't know if this has been resolved, didn't read the full discussion. Someone had suggested pressing the T key on your keyboard while moving an object in vw 3D in another discussion, it also works great for locking to the x and y axis when drawing an orthogonal view.
